Aparthotels & serviced apartments in Alicante
27 stays · 15 aparthotels and 12 serviced apartments
Alicante is a coastal city with a castle, a palm-lined seafront and a beach in the town itself, and aparthotels and serviced apartments in Alicante suit the family holidays and longer winter or remote-working stays it attracts. A kitchen lets you use the central market, a separate living area gives more room than a hotel bedroom, and many apartment buildings sit close to the beach. Our guide explains what an aparthotel is.

Playa de San Juan

Wikivoyage describes Playa de San Juan as a spacious beach about 7 km long, reached from the centre by tram line L3. It is a separate seaside neighbourhood to the north-east of the city and suits beach-focused family stays.
Getting around Alicante
Alicante-Elche Airport is about 11 km south of the city centre, according to Wikivoyage, which lists bus C6 as the link to the city, departing every 20 minutes at the time of writing. Check the current timetable on the operator's site. The main train station has AVE high-speed services to Madrid, and Cercanías line C1 connects the city with Elche and Murcia.
The TRAM d'Alacant is the metropolitan tram network and extends to Benidorm and Dénia; Wikivoyage lists line L3 for Playa de San Juan. The old town and seafront are compact enough to explore on foot.
Living in Alicante for longer
The Mercat Central sells fresh meat, seafood, cheeses, fruit and vegetables across two levels, and Wikivoyage lists it as open Monday to Saturday, with longer hours on Fridays. Check current opening times before you go.
For longer stays the old town, Postiguet and Playa de San Juan each offer a different pace. Anyone planning a longer move can read our notes on serviced apartments for relocation.
